Yum Balls

This recipe is a great, healthy alternative to traditional sugar-packed Rum Balls traditionally served at Christmas. Enjoy!


Makes about 20 balls

150g dates

100g almonds

2-4 tablespoons tahini

Desiccated coconut

Roughly combine dates and almonds in a food processor on low setting. Add 2 tablespoons of tahini and combine. Continue to add tahini in one tablespoon increments until mixture does not fall apart when pressed into balls. Form mixture into balls approximately 2 cm in diameter by rolling between palms. Roll in coconut. Chill in fridge for at least 1 hour before serving. NB. Try substituting raisins for dates and pecans for almonds.
